Academy Top 10 presented by the Army National Guard

1. (No. 1 last week) Huntington Prep (W.Va.), 12-0
The Express knocked off Ohio Division I state title contender Walnut Hills (Cincinnati) and Arlington Country Day (Jacksonville, Fla.) over the weekend at the Boyd County Roundball Classic. Next up is a trip to Fort Myers, Fla., for the City of Palms Classic Signature Series.

2. (2) Findlay Prep (Henderson, Nev.), 13-0
The City of Palms Classic will garner many of the high school hoops headlines this week, but the 'Iolani Classic in Hawai'i should be pretty special, too. The Pilots open Wednesday against Moanalua (Honolulu).

3. (3) Montverde Academy (Fla.), 6-0
The Eagles will be part of the 16-team tournament bracket at the City of Palms Classic and head to Fort Myers as the slight favorites. Head coach Kevin Boyle led St. Patrick (Elizabeth, N.J.) to the COP crown in 2010. Montverde has been a semi-regular at the event in recent years but has never won it.

4. (4) Oak Hill Academy (Mouth of Wilson, Va.), 14-1
A highly anticipated potential rematch between Oak Hill Academy and Findlay Prep is just one of the juicy storylines heading into the 'Iolani Classic. The Warriors open Tuesday against Kamehameha (Honolulu).

5. (5) St. Benedict's Prep (Newark, N.J.), 9-0
Syracuse signee Tyler Ennis and super sophomore Isaiah Briscoe combined for 36 points as the Gray Bees dismantled a talented Wilbraham & Monson Academy (Mass.) squad at the Tip-Off Hoop Group Showcase.

6. (6) Montrose Christian (Rockville, Md.), 6-0
The Mustangs are also headed to Hawai'i, where they face Oahu football power Kahuku on Wednesday.

7. (7) La Lumiere (LaPorte, Ind.), 9-0
The Lakers have an interesting opponent in the first round at the 'Iolani Classic – Tsinghua of China.

8. (10) Wesleyan Christian Academy (High Point, N.C.), 9-0
Behind the play of freshman Harry Giles, WCA notched a huge win over then-No. 8 Christ School (Arden, N.C.) last week, ending an 81-game home win streak for the Greenies. Up next is the Chick-fil-A Classic in South Carolina, where they open against St. John Bosco (Bellflower, Calif.) in a very intriguing first round matchup.

9. (9) Sunrise Christian Academy (Bel Aire, Kan.), 12-0
The Buffaloes were dealt a tough blow with the cancellation of the GulfShore Invitational after Christmas.

10. (NR) Our Savior New American (Centereach, N.Y.), 2-0
OSNA has registered a pair of impressive wins over ranked teams, most recently a 74-60 win over New Jersey title contender Gill St. Bernard's (Gladstone). The Pioneers head to the inaugural Tarkanian Classic in Las Vegas this week.

Dropped out: No. 8 last week Christ School (Arden, N.C.)
